An autobiography of the late Canon D. B. Eperson Canon Donald Eperson writes about his long and eventful life. Born in 1904, he had a happy childhood in the London suburbs with his teacher parents, playing croquet with his sister, singing in the church choir and shining in mathematics at school. Sailing through Oxford with a First, he continued his twin interests of mathematics and music as a teacher in a public school, where he ran a gramophone society, sang in a madrigal group and set Alan Turing on the road to mathematical fame as a genius of Bletchley Park, the wartime decoding centre.
